Do you want me to apply it to the branch now?

As for PR opt/13653, I came to the conclusion that the problem is different.  
Volker identified the patch that had created PR opt/11841 and reverting it 
doesn't cure PR opt/13653.  Moreover I skimmed through the RTL generated by 
GCSE and didn't find any problematic REG_EQUAL note.

I spent a couple of hours 2 weeks ago on it, but the lack of reduced testcase 
is definitely a blocker.  So either the bug shows up only with big code and 
there is little chance it will be fixed, or the bottleneck is the reduction 
process and we lack an automated tool in this area.
